About: I’ve been pet sitting for 4 years and have a huge heart when it comes to animals! I’m here to put your mind at ease while you’re away from your pet. I’m a teacher, so my summers are free to help you out with your pups! I am happy to check in, walk, or play with your pet when needed. Also, all my tips go towards getting my students more books for them! :) I can assure you that your pet will be in safe hands while at my apartment. I will make sure they are fed appropriately, taken out, and walked multiple times.

About: When I was younger I would naturally gravitate towards animals, if I was at someone’s house you’d find me hanging out with the dog or cat. Because of this I’ve always been trusted to care for them and have gained experience from a young age with many different pets with ranging needs and personalities. I personally have a three year old cat named Linus, he is extremely loving, playful, and screams at me every morning for breakfast. I often care for different pets and really enjoy giving them the attention they deserve. I’m currently doing online classes and have a very flexible schedule with my part-time job. I am open to working with anyone’s schedule and can do overnights any night. I will care for your pet as I would mine, with all precautions and care taken to ensure the safety of your pet or pets. I appreciate detailed instructions and if I’m unsure of anything I will ask.

Katharine was fantastic! She watched Winston for a few days and took great care of him - making sure he got plenty of walks, had everything he needed, and was well looked after the entire time. She also provided thoughtful updates, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with Winston again.

Elizabeth is fantastic! Clio requires special care, and Elizabeth was super communicative and comprehensive in our upfront prep, and was great during her drop-in visit to make sure everything went smoothly for Clio. She was attentive to our fur baby's needs, and Clio seemed to have a great time hanging with her! We will definitely be working with Elizabeth again!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Theresa. A friend recommended her to me, and she watched my cat over a long weekend. Right from the initial meet-and-greet, I knew she was the perfect fit, she immediately got down on the floor to meet my cat on her level, which meant so much. While we were gone, her attention to cleanliness and detail was great. She cleaned the water bowls and soft food dishes daily and handled the litter box exactly as instructed. I absolutely loved the tons of photo updates she sent, you could see how safe and comfortable my cat felt around her. On top of everything, she was incredibly accommodating with a last-minute request. I am so grateful for her care and will definitely be booking her again!
